Love at first sight Blog hop

Close your eyes and I'll kiss youtomorrow I'll miss youremember I'll always be trueand then while I'm away I'll write home everyday and I'll send all my loving to you!

Hello everyone! Welcome to the Love At First Sight Blog Hop hosted by Sandra 365 Days Of Cricut day 4 of my Beatles week!. If you are here from Jenny@ Crazy about Cricut than you are in the right spot. If you just arrived here and would like to start from the beginning Here. For this blog hop Sandra is celebrating her anniversary of when she met her hubby 8 years ago "It was Love At Fist Sight", also her 7th wedding anniversary, and of course Valentine's Day! She has asked us all to make a Love-Themed Gift for someone that we love and we will be sharing pictures of us with the person we love.

I decided to make a card for my baby sister Gena! I am the oldest of 4 girls, we were all heartbroken when the baby {she is 18} moved to Georgia with her boyfriend who is in the Military. I promised her that I would send her at least 2 cards a month! This card is inspired by her favorite Beatles song All My Loving!! { the song today isn't sung by the Beatles but this is her favorite version of the song from the movie Across the universe}

This is one of my favorite pics of us being nerds we always laugh so much when we are together

{ she is the one in the front}﻿

This is me and her this past Christmas

﻿Ok now on to my card!

I love, love the face on this little cutie!!

Here is the inside

Materials used:

Create a critter cart {for card base cut @ 5.5 inches}

Twinkle toes cart {she is cut @ 3.5 inches}

Wide eyed kids face assortment

white gel pen

K&Company Valentines paper stack

I made the sentiment using my computer

Erika, super cute card as always. I know you will be very disappointed in me but I do not have a fave Beatles song. They are not really a group I ever like a whole lot. BUT I am enjoying the Beatles week on your blog for sure and can hardly wait for the blog hop on Monday :)

Hey girly! Love your card, and this is ONE of my favorite songs by the Beatles. Just such a sweet song, and of course love all the words. You sis is going to love this card. Thanks for sharing such a great project. You also made me think of my sister..she is in heaven but I still send her all my love everyday. Cant wait till your hop!

This is a great card! Must be hard having your sister so far away :( Favorite Beatles.... that is hard... maybe... Will you still need me, will you still feed me - when I'm 64 :) That has to be one of my favorites anyway. Or maybe Generation or Eleanor Rigby... see, told you it was hard :) I am a new follower -thought I already was!

Very cute card. I know your sister will love it. My favorite Beatles song???? How do you pick one??? Ok, lately I would say it is "Here comes the Sun" since we are still buried under 3 feet of snow. (Even the church put out a sign saying "who ever is praying for snow, please stop"). For a long time I really liked "Yesterday"....but then again I really liked just about everything they did. Since I have to pick one....Here comes the Sun. I like the upbeat tempo and it is a great song.susanslomski at yahoo dot com

Love it! And love that you used the computer for the sentiment cuz I wanted to know where to buy the stamp from!My husband and I had "Let It Be" as our wedding song... yep, we were hippies at the time!I love a lot of the Beatles songs it's so hard to choose one. But maybe, today in Alaska it would have to be .."Here Comes the Sun" ... or in our case "Where is the Sun!" ;0)Off to the next blog!Kris in Alaskafunamom at yahoo dot com

Erika this card is adorable!! Love her and her little face. Nice card shape, color combo and my fav is the little letter she is holding. Your pictures of you guys are so pretty! Thanks for being in my hop!

Adorable... Love everything about it! The PKS face is so cute. So my favorite Beatles song is Strawberry Fields Forever. Thanks so much for sharing and I am a "happy" follower. AJ queenofmynest(at)gmail(dot)comhttps://queenofmynest(dot)blogspot(dot)com

I am sure your sister will love this adorable card. I am sure she misses you too! You are so sweet and special thinking about her and worrying. I am the oldest of 4 too and always worry and have a special place in my heart for my siblings! Thank you for sharing your adorable card with us. What a fun hop this has been! pjritsema at gmail dot com

This is sooooo super cute. When your see my name I bet you think I'm going to say that my fav beatles song is " Michelle" but, it's not.... I'm a rocker, so I love, "Revolution" --- I love the guitars in that song.

Hi, Erika! I'm a Beatlemaniac too! Love your card and the t-shirt on your other post too! My favorite Beatles song.... hmmmm, let me see.... I think it would have to be "Imagine" though I have tons of favorites. Thanks for sharing your talent with us today. I'm a follower.

I'm not a big Beatles fan but I do like A Hard Day's Night. My husband just recently found a group online called Betallica. They take Beatles lyrics and put them to Metallica music. You should check them out. My husband likes them but I could do without...to each his own.
